This large cohort study of 45,664 participants from the UK Biobank provides strong epidemiological evidence that fish oil use was associated with 12% and 7% lower risks of obesity and high body fat percentage, respectively. Mechanistically, marine n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids mitigate obesity traits through PRDM16‐driven gene–nutrient interactions ...
